British Forces – Cyprus Cycle Challange

Epic Cycle Adventure Around Cyprus

The following news has been received from the Royal British Legion, Kyrenia Branch:-

“On the 5th of September 11 Officers/Soldiers from the 29th Regiment Group in Sector 2 of the UNFICYP Contingent are embarking on an epic cycle adventure around Cyprus starting and finishing at Escape Beach Club, Karaoĝlanoĝlu, Girne.

They are actually cycling around the whole island, in order to raise money for the Army Benevolent Fund. The challenge is taking place from the 5-9 of September, covering 729 kilometres over the 5 days. That is 452 miles!. Training is going well and they are on target to complete the event.

They are trying to reach a target of £2,500 (or more if possible) therefore the more people who sponsor them the better as every little helps!

Your assistance with publicising this event would be much appreciated and if you are able to provide further contact details of other organisations/companies/associations that may be willing to sponsor them, it would be much appreciated.”
